L10n:Thunderbird 1.5 Release Status

Contents

Quick Notes

mscott -> I filled in COMMUNITY field for the intended testing level for a bunch of locales which will be relying on the community to help test. That was just my initial best guess. Will probably add more to the list. MoCo QA, feel free to adjust.

mscott -> I just conducted an initial trademark review via lxr to get a feel for how many locales had work to do (12/08)

Should we add a color to a locale row after it has owner sign off, trademark review and has been moved to the candidates directory so QA knows it is ready for the next step? Or do we need a new column that implies the build is now in the candidates directory ready for testing?

If the build passes trademark review, mscott or Paul will copy the locale into the 1.5rc2 candidates directory and will add it to this table.

Moz QA will determine the level of additional testing for each locale. Community only testing is a valid answer for many of the locales. For some subset of locales (3-5), Moz QA may run the l10n tests. QA will mark the build as PASS when this is done.

Axel/mscott will mark the build as being ready for release after QA has passed it.

At the time of the release, the release team can look at the release status column to know when locales are ready for release.

Values for Each Field

Owner Signoff --> PASS for locales which the localization owner has signed off on. No value for locales still waiting for owner signoff. (axel/mscott will change this column)

TM Review Status --> PASS for locales which have passed trademark review. FAIL for locales which had problems (problem details are likely on L10n:TB_1.5_Trademark_Review). No value for locales which have not been reviewed. (axel/mscott will change this column)

Testing Level --> COMMUNITY for locales which we are relying on the localization owner. IIT (install & ID test). L10N_CHECKLIST for the few locales we intend to run the full l10n checklist steps on ourselves. (values to be determined by QA, Axel and mscott)

MoCo QA Status --> PASS / FAIL (with reasons) / no value for locales which have not been looked at. (QA will change this column)

Release Status --> READY for locales ready to be released. READY (sim). RELEASED for locales which have been made live for the 1.5 release. (Axel/mscott and the release team will change this column).
